We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I have heard many good things about Frontier and I am VERY excited to move up from 6th grade at Sunderland Elementary School(Check us out, in my opinion we are an amazing school!!!) to go there for 7th grade. The reviews so far have been pretty good, so I hope that FRS can live up to my expectations!

There are some very amazing staff, however there are multiple sexist teachers who made high school hard to complete. However their library is wonderful and so are the athletic facilities.
